I'm trying to write a story that takes place on Nanga Parbat. I've been doing a bit of research on it myself, but if anyone has any information on it, it would really help me a lot. You may be able to find something about it that I haven't, so yeah. Thanks!

(Nanga Parbat is a mountain in Pakistan)

Well, I don't know much about it, but here are a few things I know:

It means 'Naked Mountain' in Hindi.
It's original name was Diamir. (Not sure what it means.)
It's part of the Himalayas.
It belongs to the Karakoram range and there've been accidents (fatal) on this mountain.

That's all I can rake up from my memory.
